This patch adds an option (turned off by default) to restrict Wine to only use the clipboard selection since it will never implement proper behaviour for the primary selection (You'll never be able to select text with the mouse).
The kind of people who get confused by this will probably not alter the defaults in this way, or even understand what the option does. Perhaps it should be on by default, with power users who are willing to accept its half completeness willing to switch on support for PRIMARY themselves?

Makes sense to me. I modified the patch to turn it on by default.

IMO you should also invert the option (and rename it to something like "UsePrimary"). It's confusing to have to set an option to false to enable a feature.
